Hi guys,
Just thought I would share my new setup. Had my car lowered on KW HAS (Height Adjustable Springs). Could not stand the sunken OEM wheels so ordered up a set of Avant Garde M615 wheels in 20x8.5 / 20x11 in brushed grigio. The wheels were machined to our bolt pattern + required offset. Let me know what you think!

BTW, any chance that your car is usually parked on San Fernando Rd near Bob Hope Airport? I drive this road to work every day and I could swear I've seen that Auto Talent plate on white F-Type there!

Congrats! Looks great. Just curious if you thought about adding spacers and if so why not? I think the F -Type looks much better slightly lower than original set up. I'm considering lowering mine but I think I would also add 10mm spacers potentially.
Any feedback is appreciated

All good, I saw it today and realized it was a different plate.
You should bring it down to the OC meet next Saturday:

Should of hit me up for the hookup! Congrats on the purchase. I am lowered all the way down and riding on bump stops. Not the most comfortable ride with 20s and I would not recommend it. I have been meaning to raise it slightly. I would recommend .8 in the front and 1 inch in the rear.

I'll be the dissenting voice here, I think all of the lowered cars I have seen look better at the top of the wheel but look wierd at the bottom because the gaps at the bottom of the guards look too wide. Also I scrape everywhere I go at normal height and it would be unusable any lower. IMHO 20" wheels in black or dark grey at normal height, gives the best overall look and practicality I also don't like the multi spoke "wagon wheel" look of those wheels. But I am all for doing to your car whatever makes you happy so if you like it then it is a good result.

finally getting them installed this coming weekend... was a delay getting them in last fall and then was too late in season to bother installing them.
how easy was the install? did you have to remove panels from the trunk interior for the install?
